Do you have a comic or other project you want to promote? Feel free to post about it here, but don't just post and run. Sticking around and joining in other discussions is the best way to get Outhousers interested in your work. These topics will also show up in The News Stand and The Asylum, for maximum exposure.

We've been busy at GrayHaven, just sending our 16th issue to print (and our 12th of this year!!!) and working on all manner of Phase Two stuff.

To support Phase Two and help assist on the costs associated with publishing all these books and editorial comps and going to cons we've launched a new Kickstarter. This one happens to be our best yet as we have all tiers of rewards from comics to original art to having an artist illustrate your story, becoming a character in a story and the big ones: pro critiques from some of the best in the industry.

Image greats like Justin Jordan (Luthor Strode, Team 7), Mark Andrew Smith (Gladstones, Sullivans Sluggers) Joe Eisma (Morning Glories) Ken Garing (Planetoid) Jimmie Robinson (Bomb Queen) Jim McCann (Mind the Gap, Return of the Dapper Men) and Rahasn Ekedal (Echoes) along with Victor Gischler (X-Men, The Shadow), John Jackson Miller (Star Wars) and Jamal Igle (The Ray) are among those that will give an indepth critique of your work as one of the rewards. A great opportunity for up and coming creators to learn from the best.

We're also in the middle of our Open Submissions period (which ends on August 31st) Take a look at our guidelines and if something interests you send in a pitch. We've given close to 200 creators their first opportunities to get published. Be the next one.

I want to hit goal by Monday (no pressure). To help aide in that we've cut the pledge amount of the pro critiques by $50 for this weekend only. Now an excellent chance to get in depth feedback by those who've made it in the business is a bit cheaper.

Well we hit the goal and are now close to getting our first stetch goal met

Also we've begun offering 'Rewards of the Day' which are sort of mega rewards. Today's is a Chris Girrusso KID ROBO variant cover, all the Phase Two first issues, having a character named after yourself and a critique of your work from either Rahasn Ekedal or Jim McCann
